Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Console best movie i've ever seen.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Andariel Halo it was moderately interesting, though constantly dragged down by some very shaky acting. it follows the similar trope of other time travel movies by showing certain scenes and sequences that apparently don't make sense but will make sense later on in the film. A macguffin appears in the form of a video camera that records everything and goes back in time, so the characters can see their immediate future selves, and even repeat the dialogue they see themselves use later on, constantly remarking things like "I knew I'd say that" or "I can't believe I got to say that" It abruptly turns into a "find the killer" type thing as a random killer goes around killing them. At some point as well, shenanigans involving time travel abuse to exploit the stock market and become rich gets involved, and there's a very minor twist at the very end that isn't very important or shocking unless you're for some reason absolutely devoted to the plot and the characters to a degree highly unusual for a 2 hour movie
JAH 9000 True, this review may contain spoilers. But they should be considered a merciful reprieve. Please, please, take my advice: read the "spoilers" and consider yourself punished enough. The premise of the movie is fairly simple. A writer needed to prove he had no solid concept of time travel, paradoxes, physics, or the way highly educated people talk. Here's my favorite quote: "The only way a time machine can be built is if someone from the future, in which one had BEEN built, used it to come back and build one." That could serve as a summary of the general intelligence of the screenplay, and if you say it kind of clumsily while staring into the middle distance instead of at the person to whom you're talking, you can get a gist of the quality of the acting as well. Who built future guy's time machine? I assume some guy from that guy's future, and so on and so on. At what future point and by what means is the time machine actually built? Who can say? Maybe it was spontaneously built at random like a monkey-typed Shakespearean masterpiece. Maybe it was aliens.It's one dumb idea after another, duct-taped together with f-bombs and unmotivated aggression, pock-marked with pointless side action and completely out-of-left-field "reveals" that make no sense. I gave this thing two stars only because it was so bad it became fun to ridicule. Somebody needs to recommend this to MST3K.
Ken Proctor This movie, like my summary, is taken from elsewhere, without acknowledging that earlier creative mind. The paradox of time travel were fictionalized in 1941 by Robert Heinlein, in his novella, By His Bootstraps. Too bad the producer of the movie did not honor Heinlein when lifting the core story elements. (Also, missing is a nod to Agatha Christie's And Then There Wa None later made as Ten Little Indians).Paradox is a good story mix of the above. However, the writing is a bit weak and the acting a bit thin. The twist at then end is nice.Oh, I took the summary from Michel Legrand, Marilyn Bergman and Alan Bergman's The Windmills of Your Mind . . , the theme song for The Thomas Crown Affair.
kosmasp It's just a shame, that a movie that could have actually been quite good breaks it's own neck. But I'll get to that in the next paragraph, which is where the spoilers will be too. So you've been warned twice about those, not that I think many will care with a B-movie like this. And that's something you always have to keep in mind. We're not talking De Niro performances or A-List script. Know what you watch, rate considering those facts.Having said all that, the time travel concept is not an easy one to pull off. But the movie is pretty decent, all the things making sense to some degree (going back and forth in time). But there is also the viewer who can see through it. When we see our guy chasing after a bad guy who goes into the elevator, quite a few will know what's up. Which is being completely distorted and destroyed by an unbelievable ending. An ending that makes no sense and is just there to shock us ... why?
